SPEEDWAY: LORAM GAMBLE
By JANINE SELF
MARK LORAM'S favourite speedway trick is to beat the odds - which must make him top of the bill with William Hill.
The betting firm are sponsoring today's Swedish Grand Prix for the first time.
And Poole's England star Loram likes a gamble - on the track at least.
Last year he upset the form book by winning in Sweden after being given a wildcard entry.
Last month he finished runner-up in Prague despite dislocating his shoulder and smashing his knee days before.
Now he hopes to defend his Linkoping title in textbook fashion.
Loram said: "I'm feeling good. The knee still gives me a bit of trouble but the shoulder is okay and I'm riding well.
"There's an exciting future for speedway with big names like William Hill coming into it and I want to be around to reap the benefits.
"The one thing I lack is consistency and that's what I want to improve on this year."
Fellow Brit Chris Louis, of Ipswich, also finished on the rostrum in the Czech GP last month.
